pls streams don't work yet. Maybe there's an app that will do that and
maybe not. The thing is, I asked accessibility@xxxxxxxxx to check over
those apps and copy the ones that are VoiceOver accessible to an VoiceOver
accessibility category in the apps store and got a thank you for my
suggestion. The pls streams work just fine on my mac mini though, it's
just the iPhone that doesn't yet do them.

hello.
not too sure we are on topic here. but I had to write. you say:
"nvda does better than narater!"

lets be thankful here. NVDA is, in fact, much better than commercial screen

something so inferior harms it.

thanks.

ms has mostly crap, narater is nothing but crap nvda does better than
narater!
And if its anything to judge that actual apple os on apple systems then
most things will work.
